I hate this type of game. Scrum after every whistle, on nothing plays.

How does Florida end up with a PP out of that? Stupid.

You hate when 2 top teams in the same conference hate each other at this time of the year?

That's the way it should have been against the Oilers yesterday. Instead we got ran over and watched Rants getting concussed without doing a thing. Personally that's what I hate.

I want to watch hockey, not the UFC

Pukeckuk is such an unlikable player. Just a f***ing asshole.

is there a better indicator of scoring being up than Brendan Dillon? Dude has 9 goals this season at age 33. Most he’s ever scored is 6 … 10 years ago. His previous 6 seasons he has 9 goals combined. Chia out.

Is that better though?
Can’t really say right now since we don’t know who’s gonna finish where. In any case, Avs need to win because Jets won and now only 2 points behind us, and if we gonna play them in the 1st round, gotta have that home ice. If we finish 1st in central and have to face LA, rather them than the Jets. Also I can finally go to a playoff game

Of course the f***ing Blackhawks beat the Stars. Had the Avs not thrown away some games recently, they’d still be in good shape for the division.

They’re still alive tbh, if they beat Dallas on Sunday. They’d probably have to win out though.
Yea it was truly neat that they scheduled us to play that dumb B2B against Jets and Vegas. We play Tuesday then Saturday/Sunday then not until Thursday. Couldn’t have possibly figured out how to play one of the games Thursday/Friday or Monday/Tuesday instead? Makes winning out a tough ask when it wouldn’t have been as much of one if the schedule wasn’t wacky

Kostin was about to kill Parayko in a fight. He got the jersey over his head and was about to unload, but the linesmen came in and save him from his fate.

lol Torts is such a moron. Tanked a Cinderella season. The difference he makes up as a good coach is completely negated by his insistence on being above everyone else he works with


He 100% caused this
Torts is having a mirror image season to the one with the Canucks. They were in a playoff spot until the Calgary line brawl Torts going after Hartley debacle and then that team just imploded

If they played better earlier this season, this part of the schedule wouldn’t matter near as much. They’ve done this to themselves, not the schedule.

They absolutely have done this to themselves. The schedule from now until the end of the season is absolutely asinine regardless

On the other hand... If the Stars hadn't thrown that game away today, the Avs would have no chance of catching them. They've also lost to Ottawa and Montreal this season, too. Every team takes a shit against a bad team once in a while, it's part of the game.

True. Players can't tolerate him long enough..

Isles beat Nashville, they now control their own destiny.
Go Roy!!

This must be one of the sickest playoff races ever no? Damn.. so many teams close

Detroit's season post-mortem should be interesting....

Yzerman hasn't been a very impressive GM for them so far, to say the least.

Looks like he got scared of becoming the next Ottawa/Buffalo so he rushed the rebuild and signed a boat load of older UFA's. The result is still no playoffs and finishing in no man's land, the worst place in hockey.
